Multitalented Witch

Chapter 362: Incredible Taste

“Halo, Xinxia, your brother, I'll be gone for some time. Please take care of yourself ..." Mo Fan called Xinxia after Tangyue finished convincing Snake Boss.

"Alright, you must also be careful." Xinxia's tone had little concern.

“Do not worry! you in your apartment? Why is it so noisy in the back?” Mo Fan asked as he heard the panicked voices of some girls from the other end.

“I'm at the student lodge. Some students have contracted a strange disease. I am healing them. However, Healing Magic seems ineffective against the disease. A lot of students have been getting sick lately. Furthermore, the school also quarantined patients, ” Xinxia said.

Xinxia is a Healing School student, so he sometimes helps the school when needed.

"Be careful, such a strange disease is always contagious," Mo Fan suggested.

“Mm!”

After hanging up the phone, Mo Fan realized that Tangyue had stored the Sky Scrapping Snake inside the Totem Orb. The Totem Orb originally had a blue-yellow glow, but it now turned blue-black. He could vaguely see something writhing within the ball.

"It really fits?" Mo Fan glanced at the Totem Orb curiously and rolled it between his fingers.

“Now is not the time to play, we have to get out of here. Zhu Mengs people will close this place soon,” Tangyue said.

Mo Fan nodded. They left the island by boat, and headed directly west of Hangzhou City.

......................

Tangyue had already found a way out. He was planning to bring the Sky Scrapping Snake to a place called White City, close to the boundary of the safe zone.

White City is far west of Hangzhou. It's pretty far from town. White Mountain close to White City has a hidden cave. Only the Totem Guard tribe chief protecting the Totem Beast knew about the cave, as the cave was used as a last resort to protect the Totem Beast.

The trip to White Mountain was neither too long nor too short, and Mo Fan's task was to escort Tangyue and the Sky Scrapping Snake to the Cave of the Thousand White Mountains.

The Cave of the Thousand White Mountains consisted of interconnected caves and mountains. The whole area is unexplored. It was the perfect place to hide the Skyscraper Snake. It didn't even matter if Zhu Meng's people managed to find the entrance of the cave, as the labyrinth-like cave would completely confuse them inside.

“Alright, let's go!”

“Time to exit!”

The two made use of the night time and quietly left Hangzhou City with the Sky Scrapping Snake. They're heading west of town.

Inside the elegant villa pavilion, Zhu Meng angrily smashed the expensive tea cup in his hand. He angrily looked at his subordinates with his head lowered as they stood in front of him.

“Council, please forgive. We did follow your orders and keep every important member of the Totem Tribe under surveillance, but we didn't expect them to leave behind a girl named Tangyue in charge of the Black Totem Snake. His strength is not very prominent in their tribe, so we did not send someone to chase him in time!” said Wu Pingjing, Head of the Royal Guard.

“Tangyue dared to defy me when she became a member of the Magic Court. Send a warrant after him! If the Enforcement Union in Hangzhou says anything, have them all arrested! ” snapped Zhu Meng.

He did not expect his plan to be interrupted by an insignificant woman.

"Coucilman Zhu, stop blaming your people." An old man wearing a classic embroidered dress walked into the pavilion with a teapot. His beard slightly swayed with his movements.

The head of the Royal Guards, Wu Pingjing was shocked. He stared blankly at Council Member Luo, who was known to oppose Council Member Zhu. He could not understand why he would appear at the home of Councilor Zhu.

“Wu Pingjing, you are still too naive. You still treat everything as black and white!” luo Mian said with an older attitude, while stroking her beard.

“The Luo Mian Council is one of the backers of my proposal to eliminate the potential threat of Hangzhou. However, given his influence in the Hangzhou Enforcement Union, he did not want to be at odds with the people from the Totem Tribe, ” Zhu Meng explained.

Wu Pingjing opened his mouth wide. He felt like saying something, but he was unable to find his words.

The relationship between the Board Members is too complicated. They were arguing so much with each other during the meeting, that even Wu Pingjing assumed that Luo Mian was on the other side. Who knew that he had already colluded with Council Member Zhu Meng?

Does this mean the news of the ecdysis Black Totem Snake came from Council Member Luo and his subordinates?

“In fact, after yesterday's meeting, I already knew that the Tangyue girl would take Black Totem Snake. Unfortunately, the Head of the Magic Court, Tang Zhong seemed to be suspicious of me, and dragged me along with him to play chess all night, ”Luo Mian smiled.

“Enough with his nonsense, I've asked you here to tell me the truth. I have already sent my people to watch over the beast, yet I still do not understand how he managed to sneak past us without us noticing, ” Zhu Meng said.

Wu Pingjing also nodded.

The same question bothered him. To be safe, not only had he sent people to spy on Tang Zhong, Heiyu, and the people from the Totem Tribe, they had also made a traveling line around the West Lake. Tangyue is not a Super Witch. It was impossible for him to escape without telling their people.

“I also just learned from my subordinates. Although the strength of the Black Totem Snake would decrease significantly during ecdysis, his senses were actually sharper. Commander-in-Chief demonic beasts or Advanced Magicians who came within twenty kilometers of the creature would be detected. This is an important step to keep himself safe, as it allows him to quickly detect potential threats and escape from his enemies. That Tangyue must have used her ability to sneak past your people, ” Luo Mian said.

Zhu Meng raised his eyebrows in surprise.

The head of the Royal Guards, Wu Pingjing also raised his head with a surprised expression.

“The Black Totem Snake is considered quite powerful even among Sovereign-level creatures. How could he not have such extraordinary abilities? Therefore, the number of people you send after them will not make a difference. The Black Totem Snake will easily feel their presence, ” Luo Mian added.

“So you mean?” zhu Meng said.

“The Magic Court has many interns. You can send them instead. Keep them busy instead of trying to catch them, and wait until your Royal Guards arrive. That tangyue won't have a chance to escape from us!” Luo Mian stroked his beard, as if he had thought of a plan a long time ago.
